A bride and groom celebrated a different sort of golden wedding when they were transported to their celebrations in a gleaming Dyno-Rod van.

Richard Swan from Wokingham, who is head of technical for Dyno-Rod, tied the knot with wife Jo on Friday.

Unbeknown to him, his new wife had arranged for a special gold-plated Dyno-Rod van to take them from Wokingham Register Office, in Shute End, to the celebrations at Highfield Park in Hook.

The couple have been together for 10 years, and the wedding coincided with Mr Swan’s 50th birthday.

Dyno-Rod celebrated its 50th anniversary this year, and the special gold van was made to mark the occasion.

Mrs Swan said: “Dyno-Rod has been a big part of our lives for many years and I thought it would be a funny way of ending our whirlwind wedding plans by incorporating the golden van into our day.

“It’s not your typical old-fashioned car or luxury limo and I just wanted something unique that our guests will talk about for years to come and also has a special meaning for us and especially Richard.”

The couple have five children between them, aged between two and 19, and were joined by friends, including more Dyno-Rod employees for the big day.
